Design Process - Sculpture Photographs (EDITING)

For the sculpture photographs, my favorite one is the last one (first below). 

• background of environment and setting
• connection between human and sculpture
• large part of the top of the photograph - looming over our lives

Now I am looking at different types of edits and how they affect the message the photographs convey. 

Editing software used: http://www.picmonkey.com/

Black & White

• this quite accurately conveys the message
• the sky is quite dull - fits my purpose, but too monotone
• the whole photograph is just black and white - too boring and monotone
• the focal point is not clear

Black & White - highlight on sculpture

• this quite accurately conveys the message
• the sky is grey-ish - fits my purpose, more interesting than the first photograph
• more color variation with highlighted sculpture - more interesting and 
• the focal point is clearly on the sculpture --> directs viewer to look then at the human face

Focal Point on Sculpture

• the focal point is clearly on the sculpture - but the other subjects are not clear enough
• the color of the background is very unnatural and unfitting for the emotion of the photograph
